iPhone/iPod Applications.

Did you know that Apple’s iTunes App Store recently sold it’s 2 Billionth application? Yes, that Billion with a B! With something this big, why not try to make one of your own. After all, there’s an App for that. You’ve seen the commercials, there’s an application for just about everything. Just about! Do you want to keep track of your homework better, organize your afterschool activities or need a better way to remember to bring your band instrument to class? Why not make your own App for it.

To get started, watch the stories and tutorials below to get an idea of what and how to do it. You never know, you could be the next computer programming star!
